The history of our famous potatoes.
Ben & Florentine’s famous potatoes have become our signature. Perfectly seasoned, our diced potatoes are a sunny addition to any dish. The care we take in preparing them reflects our commitment to flavor and quality.
Drawing their unique flavour from the rich red soils of Prince Edward Island, our renowned varieties like Russet Burbank and Sheapody have a crisp exterior while the interior is soft and chewy, like a baked potato. They are a great accompaniment to any dish!
